4 | Was Simeon part of N. kingdom? | Not Specified | Pam D | 103049 | ||
Was Simeon part of the northern kingdom? The bible says, at the time of Rehoboam and Jeroboam, Israel was split into the Northern Kingdom of Israel consisting of 10 of the tribes of Israel (1Kings 11:35) and the Southern kingdom which included Judah and Benjamin (1Kings 12:23) According to Map 4 in my Life Application Bible (it shows the land that God had given to each tribe), Simeon is located in the middle of Judah. Did the tribe of Simeon continue to live in the middle of Judah, but were loyal to Jeroboam and the northern kingdom? Thanks for any help you can give me. Blessings, Pam |

5 | I found errors in the Bible - help ! | Not Specified | Pam D | 103891 | ||
Question 1: 1Kings 15:9-10 says that Asa reigned as king of Judah for 41 years. 1Kings 15:33 says Baasha became king of Israel in the 3rd year of Asa’s reign of Judah and Baasha reigned 24 years. This would mean Baasha only reigned until Asa’s 27th year of reign. According to 1Kings 16:8-12, Baasha would have been dead by the 28th year of Asa's reign. How can 2Chronicles 16:1 say that in the 36th year of Asa’s reign Baasha the King of Israel came up against Judah? Question 2: How come the 2Chronicles passages quoted below say there was peace for 10 years at the beginning of King Asa’s reign (2Chron 14:1) and then again for 20 years after he defeated the Eithiopians (1 Chron 15:10,19), but 1Kings 15:15,32 both say that there was war between Asa king of Judah and Baasha king of Israel all their days? 2Chron 14:1 Asa became king. The land was undisturbed for 10 years during his days. 2Chron 14:6 There was no one at war with him (ASA) during those years because the Lord had given him rest. 2Chron 14:7 Asa said to Judah, ...the land is still ours, because we have sought the Lord our God; we have sought Him, and He has given us rest on every side. 2Chron 14:9-15 Asa defeated the Eithiopians. 2Chron 15:10 Asa and the people assembled at 15th year of Asa’s reign, sacrificed to the Lord... 2Chron 15:19 And there was no more war until the thirty fifth year of Asa’s reign. 1Kings 15:16, 32 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days. ???? Thanks for any help anyone can give me regarding these questions. Blessings, Pam |

Question: Question 1: 1Kings 15:9-10 says that Asa reigned as King of Judah for 41 years. 1Kings 15:33 says Baasha became king of Israel in the 3rd year of Asa’s reign of Judah and Baasha reigned 24 years. This would mean Isreal's King Baasha only reigned until Judah's King Asa’s TWENTY SEVENTH year of reign. How can 2Chronicles 16:1 say that in the THIRTY SIXTH year of Asa’s reign Baasha the King of Israel came up against Judah? Question 2: How come 2Chronicles 14:1,6-7 says there was peace for 10 years at the beginning of King Asa’s reign and then after he defeated the Eithiopians (2Chron 14:9-15) there was peace again for 20 years, but 1Kings 15:15,32 both say that there was war between Asa king of Judah and Baasha king of Israel all their days? Thanks for any help anyone can give me regarding these questions. Blessings, Pam |

7 | Critique this Predestination view? | Not Specified | Pam D | 145294 | ||
Please critique this view on predestination. If someone could take each part and point out anything that is wrong, I would be so appreciative. 1) Men have free will to choose to be saved or not - (1Kings 18:21; Josh 24:15; Deut 30:19; Jn 7:17; 2Thess 2:10; 2:12; Ro 1:20). 2) The bible teaches we are chosen through belief in Jesus (2Thess 2:13,14; Eph 1:5,11; Jn 5:40). We are chosen through Gods foreknowledge of who would choose Christ (1Pe 1:1-2; Rom 8:29). 3) God issues a universal invitation (Matt 11:28; Isa 55:1); God is not partial (Rom 2:11); God does not want anyone to perish (2Pe 3:9; 1Tim 2:3-4; Ezek 33:11); God is grieved over mens wickedness (Gen 6:6). 4) God wants men to “seek” (Greek “pselaphao”) Him (Acts 17:26-27). According to Thayers lexicon “seek” in Rom 3:11 and Acts 15:17 is a different Greek word ("ekzeteo") and it can mean “seek Gods favor” or “seek to please God”. (although Thayers does not assign it that meaning in those passages) 5) Natural man can not understand the Bible (1Cor 2:12-14), is spiritually dead (Eph 2:1), but NOT physically dead. Man can know God through creation (Rom 1:21) or suppress the truth (Rom 1:18, 21, 25). 6) The sinners will is not enslaved to the sin nature. The Holy Spirit can draw to Christ ONLY those who allow him to have his way with them (Acts 7:51, Jn 6:44). Until the sinner responds, the Spirit cannot give life. The Spirit “calls” those He foreknew would choose life (Rom 8:28-30). Those who are seeking God through their natural senses, who do not suppress the truth are “called” (Rom 1:18,21,25). The gospel is the power of God ONLY to those who believe (Rom 1:16). 7) Faith is a gift from God (Eph 2:8-9), it includes knowledge of the truth, the power to embrace that truth and the confidence to hold on to it. Faith does not involve the choice - You have to make the choice (1Kings 18:21; Josh 24:15; Deut 30:19; Jn 7:17; 2Thess 2:10; 2:12; Rom 1:20). 8) Free will continues in the new birth only in relation to fellowship with God not with regard to eternal security. Believers are eternally secure (Believers can not lose their salvation). Thanks so much for any help. I know this may take a while to do. Blessings, Pam |

11 | Hebrew Expert needed for Gen 3:7 | Not Specified | Pam D | 159354 | ||
Hebrew expert needed for Gen 3:7. I have Analytical Key to the Old Testament Vol 1 by John Joseph Owens, but I don't understand some of what it says. Next to "Then were opened" it says: consecutive -Niph'al imperfect 3 feminine plural What does it mean when it says "consecutive", What is "Niph'al" and what does the "3" mean? I'm trying to find out if Eve's eyes were opened first and then Adams or if both of their eyes were opened at the same time. Thanks for any help. Blessings, Pam |

12 | WHERE WAS ADAM WHEN EVE WAS TRICKED | Bible general Archive 2 | Pam D | 100712 | ||
Gen 3:6..gave to her husband WITH her and he ate.. Adam was with Eve when she was tempted and ate the fruit. Gen 3:3 But from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, You shall not eat from it or touch it, lest you die. 4) And the serpent said to the woman, "You surely shall not die! 5) For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil. Gen 3:6 When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to HER HUSBAND WITH HER, and he ate. All of the "you"s in Gen 3:3-5 are plural in the Hebrew. And Gen 3:6 says that Adam was with Eve when she ate the fruit. Doesn't this just open up a whole new set of questions? Like why didn't Adam stop Eve from eating the fruit? Blessings, Pam |

14 | How should I study? | Bible general Archive 2 | Pam D | 120706 | ||
Check out www.bsfinternational.org web site. It gives the locations of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Classes that are held all over the world. BSF offers a four-fold approach to studying the bible. First, you do personal bible study on a passage. 2nd, you take part in a small group discussion on what you studied. 3rd, you hear a lecture on what you studied. 4th, you receive a 6-8 page "commentary" on what you studied. BSF classes meet every week, from Sept to mid May. I think you will benefit greatly from this study's fourfold approach. Blessings, Pam |

Dear EdB, Thanks so much for taking the time to answer my question. I know you are correct in the Categories you outlined in your answer, but I am still wondering: 1. Why aren't the Pauline epistles listed in the order they were written? According to the Life Application Bible notes: Galatians was probably written in 49AD, making it the first of Paul's epistles. Why wasn't Galatians placed 1st in the Pauline epistles? 1st and 2nd Thessonians were written in AD51 and Romans was written in AD57. Both were written from Corinth by Paul. And yet 1st and 2nd Thess are listed last in the Pauline epistles, just before the pastoral epistles. Why weren't they placed before Romans? The rest of the Pauline epistles seem to be generally listed in the order they were written except Philemon. 1Cor AD 55-56; 2Cor AD 55-57; Eph AD 60-62; Phil AD 61-62; Col AD 60-61; 1Tim AD 62-64; 2Tim AD 66-67; Titus AD 63-64; Philemon AD 60-62 2. I am also wondering why the General epistles were put in that order. The only one that seems out of order according to the date it was written is Jude AD 65-80. If the date they were written is not the criteria for why they were placed in that order, why didn't they group the epistles from the Lord's brothers (James and Jude) together? Or at least put Jude before 1st John and keep all the epistles John wrote together which includes Revelation? I would appreciate any comments on these questions that you may have. Blessings, Pam D |
